In a historic victory, content creator Elvish Yadav has emerged as the winner of ‘Big Boss OTT 2’, becoming the first-ever wildcard contestant to claim the title. Elvish made his entry into the show during its fourth week, capturing the hearts of the audience.
As the champion, Elvish not only takes home the prestigious trophy but also walks away with a cash prize of Rs 25 lakhs. The other finalists who made it to the top 5 were Abhishek Malhan, Manisha Rani, Bebika Dhurve, and Pooja Bhatt.
‘Bigg Boss OTT 2’ is exclusively streamed on JioCinema and witnessed an astounding 70 lakh views during its grand finale. The competition for the winner’s title was fierce, with fans passionately supporting both Elvish Yadav and Abhishek Malhan. Elvish’s loyal supporters even caused a temporary shutdown of the ‘Bigg Boss’ voting system with their overwhelming participation.
Prior to the finale, it was revealed by Abhishek’s sister, Prerna Malhan, on the ‘X’ app (formerly known as Twitter), that YouTuber Fukra Insaan had fallen ill and had to leave the ‘Bigg Boss OTT 2’ house.
During the grand finale, Elvish Yadav and Abhishek Malhan engaged in a neck-and-neck battle, showcasing their dedicated fan followings. Elvish expressed his gratitude for making it to the top 5 despite being a wildcard contestant. In his winner’s speech, Elvish shared, “This experience has been surreal for me. Meeting all of you for the first time, I am overwhelmed with gratitude. Whether I win or not, the love from everyone is more than enough.”
In an unfortunate turn of events, Abhishek Malhan was hospitalized with a viral infection just before the grand finale. However, he bravely joined the other finalists in the ‘Bigg Boss OTT 2’ house, displaying unity during the crucial moment of the eviction process. Due to his illness, Abhishek couldn’t perform, but Elvish Yadav and Manisha Rani dedicated a special dance performance to him, paying homage to his absence.
The grand finale was a star-studded affair, with Bollywood superstar Salman Khan stealing the show with his energetic dance moves. Joined by former contestants and the families of the finalists, Salman created an electrifying atmosphere. Pooja Bhatt was the first finalist to be eliminated from ‘Bigg Boss OTT 2’, while Bebika Dhurve followed suit. Bebika’s father broke the news of her eviction, and she bid farewell to the show by delivering a rap performance, with Elvish Yadav providing the beat from inside the ‘Bigg Boss OTT 2’ house.
Adding to the entertainment, comedian and television personality Krushna Abhishek made two hilarious appearances on the show. He impersonated both Jackie Shroff and Dharmendra, leaving the audience in splits. Krushna also couldn’t resist poking fun at rapper Badshah’s footwear choices, jokingly remarking, “While we keep our shoes in the cupboard, Badshah has to park his shoes in the garage.”
